This looks like a Mirage from the side, but, judging from the belly air scoop it’s probably a stretch, two-seater F-16—one of the birds Israel would use to attack Iran, if such became necessary. As it might, thanks to our feckless, pro-Muslim president. Anyhow, here it’s a pair of IAF birds at the Red Flag war games over Nellis AFB, near Las Vegas, to which all allied air forces are invited.

Those Iranians and their Gazan acolytes are really a hoot. You just don’t know fear until you’ve seen the Iranian wookie suits on parade. Apparently they think these hula-skirts-gone-beserk will be good camouflage when their day of military reckoning comes.
Forgetting all those airborne IR sensors cutting through to the heat of the matter. The Gazan string version is even more pathetic. It’s hard to take these people seriously, even under the best of circumstance. I’d say there’s a better than even chance they will turn their new nukes onto themselves.

I’ve been a student of the Civil War all my life. Hence the new book. You can’t grow up the descendant of Confederates on both sides of your family and avoid knowing instantly what someone is referring to when they say “the war.” Yankees can ignore it. They won. The defeated never forget. But, much as I’ve enjoyed reading (and writing) about the war and its personalities, I’ve never been a fan of board games for re-fighting the battles. Which is probably why I never imagined that one of them could cost eighty dollars. Gasp.

It doesn’t offer even the illusion of hope because first, says Palestinian journalist Khaled Abu Toameh, the Pals must make peace with themselves:
“Dismantle all the Palestinian militias, start building Palestinian infra-structures, solve the Palestinian-Palestinian problems—and only then, sit down with the Jews. Obama thinks the ball is in the Israeli court. That is not true.”
But, hey, maybe we shouldn’t confuse Obamalot and the leftists with facts. They’re having too much fun hating on Israel.

Working to format my Indie books Leaving The Alamo and Knoxville 1863 for this program to provide free ebooks to active military, particularly those in Afghan and Iraq. It’s even “adopted” a light aircraft carrier, the Bonhomme Richard. Formatting (or, rather, deleting the old formatting) is a pain, so it’s moving slowly.

“…workers at the Dimona reactor who submitted visa requests to visit the United States for ongoing university education in Physics, Chemistry and Nuclear Engineering — have all been rejected, specifically because of their association with the Dimona reactor.”
WordPress is fighting my effort to link to the source of the above, so I’ll put it here, I hope. Obamalot’s move may also be related to this. Commentary from Roger L. Simon.
UPDATE: The White House and the State Department are denying it, saying the Maariv newspaper story is inaccurate and there’s been no visas denied.
